In my opinion I liked the book a lot. I think that the way dally died was very clever. I was as surprised as anyone that S.E Hintion was only 15 when she wrote the book. She probably spent a lot of time alone because to write a really awesome book like that you would need to spend a lot of time and have a lot of patience. what do you think about S.E Hinton? share some of your comments.

I was surprised when Dally died, too. He died the same day as Johnny! I think he wanted to die because he didn't want to live without Johnny.
